“Life stressors and challenges affect people of all ages, including children, adolescents and adults. While most may prefer to face them alone, receiving support from an outside perspective is at times the biggest gift you can give your-self and the people you love the most. Together, we can explore ways to ease the challenges and promote a healthy relationship that you can have with yourself and others. Children often face many challenges that we as adults might not fully understand or know how to manage. At times these internal emotions become difficult behaviors to support or challenge.

“As a client-focused, strength based, brief therapist I believe clients lead the way. It is my privilege to help you move towards your goals through self awareness and skills-based guidance. A person is much more than a diagnosis and at times labels can get in the way. Changes that match who a person is and where they are in their life lead to success. What we create together should be manageable so that "better" continues after our relationship ends.
